Day 2 and feeling decent

[Phin]

Today is my day 2 and I'm feeling decent. I've had the odd fleeting thought of AL but no cravings......I'm not even CLOSE to out of the woods, but feeling ok.

I've started a lifestyle change as of yesterday. I am taking time for me, to make myself healthy and happy inside and out. Once I start feeling better physically, I can work on the inside.

Hats off to all of you trying, keep on trying!!!!

Day 2 for me as well, Phin. Also not feeling bad but did have some craving around the time of dinner prep......that was my starting time......to make preparing yet ANOTHER meal more enjoyable.

However, I got past that and I will be ok now. I have to remind myself how important this is to me!

Bring on day 3!!!!!!

Day 2 for me 2. I think the tooth ache is helping me because I cant take any pain meds and drink. And I am so nauseous from the antibiotic I don't want it either....well on to day 3...

My day 2 too

I couldn't even work full day, was tired from barely sleeping last night and very anxious... I am tempted, but don't want to undo the work its taken me to get to this place. And its better than yesterday!!

Every day will get better and we will feel healthier and stronger! Some feel like poop now but the end result is so worth it. I am so happy to have awaken the last 3 morning not feeling the least bit hungover. Though my body is screaming at me having gone back to the gym!

Phin I think you have hit on a huge point here. With out a lifestyle change things will always tend to go back the way they were. You sound like you have made some good choices and sobriety can be yours. This time 4 sure!

Day 2 for me as well, today will be day 3.. No cigs and no wine... The blackouts were an every night occurence, that became the new normal, My 5 year old daughter says you were crazy, or dont be crazy tonight, alot of times i would fall asleep ( pass out ) and they would try and wake me up and wouldnt be able to and they would tell me in the morning. I felt terrible, i dont know how long this has been going on, or how much they will remember at the tender ages of 5 and 8. But I shared with them last night, after my daughter said dont be crazy tonight, that its the wine that mommy drinks that makes me fall asleep and do silly things. I said sometimes, i maybe can have a little, but not alot. I feel a little guilty about letting them on to my little secret, but its just got to stop.... Happy New Year to all!

Day 2 and feeling decent

Today is the end of Day 4. I have to say that I've been thinking quite a bit about AL today. In my rational brain, I know that it is the AL screaming out, yelling that I need it, but I need to keep in my head always that I DON'T NEED IT.

But it is bothering me tonight.

How are you doing Phin? I'm nearing the 11th month mark and I'm doing great. Are you holding strong?
